What is Arts Administration? Sounds like a fluff degree.

Focuses in the business side of arts, stuff like marketing and running a business in art fields. Skills that would be helpful in finding work within the theatre world beyond just being on stage.

Understanding "the business" thoroughly would also be useful as an actor trying to find work.

It's a small major here at my university, and doesn't add much more work than a minor would.

why not get a degree in something actually useful?

Whatever else I do needs to integrate well with acting

I want to be an actor. I'm not going to just switch to some STEM bullshit. If I'm not acting, I want to be either making decent ass money while I practice and go out to auditions or doing something in the realm of theatre. History is cool as hell too but I'm much more interested in acting than teaching.
you dont need a degree to be an actor.

No, but I do need training.

The value of a degree isn't in the document, it is in the training behind it.
why not get a real degree and real job, then take acting classes?

You can major in whatever you want to. That's the beauty of it.

Why would I? If it's what you like doing, are willing to potentially sacrifice a stable income and are well aware that the odds of you becoming a succesful actor are very much against you, then you should go for it.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.

We're all gonna be speaking Spanish in twenty years.

Your move.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
Learning the business side is a good idea. If for some reason acting doesn't pan out, you'll have learned the skills necessary to still work in the industry that you want.

You either die a hero or live long enough to become Mythic..
If you want to be convinced not to do something, you probably don't want to do it in the first place.
